My Experience With Bharat n Dorris Lipstick No. 160:

Packaging: It comes in a regular twist up bullet form having a matte black body. It is shaped exactly like a bullet. It reminds me of MAC lipsticks. The brand name is written with white letters and the shade number is at the bottom. The packaging looks quite cheap and flimsy. The bullet is little shaky and I feel it might just break if too much pressure is put, plus, the cap doesn't shut tightly. In fact, mine has almost become loose. But for the price, you cannot really complain. Moreover, I would have liked some kind of transparent packaging where you can see the color of the lipstick. Here, it's all black body with just the number at the bottom.
Shade: The shade is frosty metallic copper color. It is metallic and has minute glitters which I don't like. This particular shade doesn't suit me. It makes me look too old. I personally don't like shimmer in my lipstick. If the shade is correct, I might bear with the shimmer as well, but here the shade is not for me. It might suit very fair skin people.

Texture and Pigmentation: The texture of this lipstick is very creamy and smooth. It glides smoothly on the lips without tugging or pulling. With just one stroke, you get the perfect color, and with two or three more swipes, you can build the color but it deposits the shimmer sparsely. So the application might look uneven at times. Despite being creamy, it doesn't transfer much, but you can see the shimmer all over the place.
Staying Power: This lipstick surprisingly stays for good 2-3 hours. The shimmers do fade away with time, but the color remains intact. Even after eating, the color shows up on the lips. It doesn't settle into fine lines, nor does it increase the patchiness. It doesn't dry the lips and that's good.

Pros Of Bharat n Dorris Lipstick No. 160:

• Smooth and creamy
• Pigmentation is good
• Staying power is decent

Cons Of Bharat n Dorris Lipstick No. 160:

Diva Likes Rating:

3/5

Final Note:

I like the creamy texture of this lipstick. This is my first product from this brand, so I was not expecting much. But considering the quality of lipstick, I might want to buy other shades from this brand. If you happen to be a lover of shimmer or glitter, then this frosty lipstick might just be a good buy for you. Others, you might try different shades.
